On behalf of the Ohio Medical Corporation's Service Department, we are saddened by Wade's sudden passing away. I knew Wade through the service contract we have on the medical equipment at the hospital and loved the great emails he always sent us. He had a great sense of humor and was a good friend. He will be sadly missed even up here in Illinois as he was the best guy we have had business relations with as a customer and with our service technicians who would see him every three months.

We are very sorry for your loss and our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Josh Pedraja, Service Coordinator for Ohio Medical Corporation
